The 5 falcons on the St Michael and St Gudula Cathedral are all born. The last one came out of its egg on Thursday 22 April 2010. Two peregrine falcons are staying in the cathedral for the 6th consecutive year now.

   

Falcon - eggs Each year, a camera network ensures that visitors can watch the curious lives of these birds of prey. While flying a falcon can reach speeds up to 300 km/h. This extraordinary life can be discovered and observed without disturbing the falcons. The obeservation post at the Cathedral [plan] is open every day and 24 hours a day.

Attention: since 1 June 2010, the observation post is closed. It will open again in April 2011.
